Q: Hello 5i, FEO

What are the fundamentals like on this Iron exploration company? I realize they are in the early exploratory stage so would be considered high risk but if you could comment or have any info on management profile, company history and forward projections and revenue this would be very appreciated. Gold and Silver have had a good run as of late, do you feel that Iron would be "in that space" for mineral momentum?
Thanks so incredibly much!

Q: I have been hearing more about the next stage in the commodity cycle is copper and then oil essentially from gold. What is the best way to get exposure to that trade without taking single security risk?

Q: Dear Peter:

Thanks for once again for being ahead of the curve with Gold! Not surprising given the fact that you worked alongside with legendary investor Eric Sprott! Your consistency and voice of moderation has helped me. I have over the years accumulated GLD/XGD and your favourites, FNV/AEM/NEM and more recently WPM and ARIS.
No complaints about Gold!!

The question is based on your recent answers suggesting that Gold can still go higher but warned folks to be careful about position sizes. I get that point of yours as well.

Where would you add new funds? In individual names of the miners or ETFs? Large caps or Mid tier producers like ARIS? GDX is in USD. IF Gold goes higher, then is it good or bad for USD denominated GDX? Am I not better off adding to my XGD?
Finally how much more room has Gold to go, in terms of percentage, 15%.or 20%? When "experts" on YouTube call for 5000/8000/10000 Gold, I get VERY nervous! Not sure if the mainstream institutions have started to buy Gold or slowly unwinding their positions! Ordinary folks like us have no access to that sort of data!! Any words of wisdom what the smart money is doing? (Every single news feed I get seems to say that ALL the central banks are accumulating Gold!!)

Please deduct as many credits as you see fit.

Thank you for all the good work!

Q: I’m yet another discontent WGX investor. Simply not confident in their future growth prospects! I’m looking at selling WGX and buying FOM. With the recent positive news around this Copper mine and the fact that it will begin production in early 2026, do you feel this would be a wise move? Thank you in advance. Stan.

Q: A question was recently asked about whether gold has finished its run and you said no. I don’t think I have ever owned anything related to gold and i don’t know much about it. But, if it has more runway and we face a bit of an uncertain future, it may be time to test the water. I imagine some kind of etf, either US or Cdn would fit best. What would you suggest on each side of the border for someone in my position
Thanks for great advice

Q: What is your opinion on whether or not Foran is worth investing in?
I see that Mark Carney has included Foran's McIlvenna Bay copper mine project in his recent announcement of five major projects he would like to see crossing the finish line. Any idea what this might mean?
I also see that Foran has been approved to earn up to C$70 Million in Transferrable Royalty Tax Credits from the Government of Saskatchewan.

Thanks as always for your expertise.

Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
Could I get your opinion of ZJG ETF from BMO please ??
The large cap golds have done really well lately and my guess is that the Junior Gold space will really get it into gear moving forward.
If you have a better alternative to ZJG I would love to hear about it.
Thank you so much for your expertise. DL

Q: I recall asking here why materials stocks, namely gold, were so low. Now with gold prices rocketing I am amusing myself with the opposite worry. I am holding this etf and see that it has had a meteoric rise. Do you think that this is a still a prudent investment or is there a better way to manage my materials exposure? Is gold unnecessarily high right now?

Q: I've held MDI for some time (years) - thinking when gold and metals market move higher {which they have done) , MDI would be a leveraged 'picks and shovels' way to play the sector. That has not occurred, and recent quarterly results seem underwhelming to me. Your thoughts on both the results and my strategy.

Note: A couple of years ago I added AEM/NTR to bolster my materials weightings so do not need MDI in my portfolio to cover material sector.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts and great service.

Glenn
